Councilwoman Ann O'Brien's Statement on Allegations Against Cesar Chavez
“The allegations reported by the New York Times regarding Cesar Chavez are disturbing and cannot be ignored. Phoenix has long recognized Chavez for his contributions to labor rights and civil rights, but honoring a legacy cannot come at the expense of the dignity and truth of those who came forward. I will work with my colleagues to begin an open and deliberate review of Cesar Chavez Day and the Cesar Chavez Plaza to ensure that the way we commemorate figures in our public spaces reflects our community's values of justice and accountability.”
